Detailed Description

This Walker VVT solenoid is used in exhaust-side variable valve timing systems to help control oil flow to the cam phaser. It is listed for a wide range of GM vehicles, including 2018-2019 Buick Envision, 2018-2019 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2017-2019 Cadillac CTS, along with other Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC applications. If you are servicing a 2018 Chevrolet Equinox VVT solenoid issue or replacing an exhaust oil control valve on a 2019 GMC Terrain, Walker Products 590-1173 is a direct-fit service part to verify against your original unit.

What It Helps Address

  • Check engine lights related to variable valve timing performance
  • Rough idle caused by exhaust cam timing control faults
  • Cam timing response issues during acceleration
  • Oil control valve or VVT solenoid electrical faults
  • Driveability problems tied to exhaust-side timing control

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the connector style, mounting hole layout, and exhaust-side position before installation. Compare the original part number and connector orientation to the existing unit on the vehicle. This part fits exhaust applications only, so verify the engine configuration and OE reference before ordering. For fitment research, check 2016-2019 Chevrolet Malibu, 2018-2019 Buick Regal Sportback, and 2017-2019 Cadillac ATS exhaust applications against the vehicle’s original VVT solenoid.
